I’ve seen some comments saying that the legendary skins just make Siege look like another Fortnite. While it may be true that some legendary skins look very cartoonish, there are a lot out there that actually look badass, and fits well to the lore of Siege. After all, most of these operators are from special forces, and they do undercover operations from time to time, that is why it is wrong for us to expect them to always be in tactical gear.
15. Bandit - Axle 13
Not only does it look badass. It’s also a call back to Bandit’s bio which says he’s done undercover work and had to be involved in the narcotics trade.
What makes Axle 13 great:
- It looks badass as hell
- Coincides with Bandit’s background story
Price: 1,800 R6 credits – around $15. But at the time of writing this article, there is a 20% discount which lowers it to 1,440 R6 credits.
